I've known Tristan for years. He's a true comrade who has acted in solidarity with social movements the world over and has been a consistent member of Bay Area radical politics since the 90's. You're in all our thoughts, Tristan. I wanna see your face at the barricades again!

I'm so sorry you were injured like that. I am deeply grateful for your level of courage and commitment. We need so many, many more like you. All i know is that your stance will call to the hearts of the up and coming generation. We need millions with such resolve. Your work is indeed inspiring. May you heal and be stronger than ever.

Tristan, a fellow Bay Area activist was passionately involved in many important struggles for justice locally with the world at heart and really shined as a passionate human being. Im really saddened to see this kindred ally go through this.. I didn't know he had gone to the west bank, but shows where his heart was: with the people,with the oppressed, against the more blatant form of injustice going on in our times today.

I hope he recovers. The IDF always claims "stone throwing," even if the protest is completely peaceful--and they aim for the upper body to hit people directly. See the video proof below. This was a protest about a separation wall where they claimed rock throwing, etc, and they aim tear gas and rubber bullets to the upper part of the body (illegal), hitting a civilian activist in the head,who later got brain damage. The rock throwing was a lie, as you can see in the video. They claimed rock thowing in this case too, as parroted by the media.

I first met Tristan in '96 or so when he went down to Guatemala to support the demobilization process of URNG combatants and to learn from their experience. We were together in the streets of many cities after that...and will be in the future.

Que todos se levanten, May all rise up, que se llame a todos, May all be called, que no haya un grupo, May there be not be one group, ni dos grupos de entre nosotros nor another group among us que se quede atras de los demas. which are left behind the others. --Pop Wuj

That's right, buldoze those homes and orchards as well as the people who were living there, into their well deserved mass graves so "Our land" stays our land, this time. Shoot the protesters and heroize the shooters.

Does anyone detect a faint trace of psychopathy? And a path to oblivion?

A lot together my man. I am pulling for you. Boy did this make me cry. I would say I cannot believe it but being what those wonderful forces have been doing to Palestinians for so long, I can believe it. Every millimeter of me is pulling for you. You can make it- you are that strong

This shows how ignorant the Isralis and their supporters are. They are abusing the worl and the palesitninas by thier actions.

Fences do not give you peace. You can hide behind the fences but you cannot run. The day welcome when The Mubaraks, the Kings who are supporting the Isralis will end. The only direction for the Israeli impire is going down. It has reached the ultimate of arogANCE AND IGNORACE AT THE SAME TIME.

peace connot be obtained by by might or killing inisent people.
